Expert Answers about Nissan Frontier


  • Parts Needed to Install 4-way Connector on 2014 Nissan Frontier to Connect Tailgate LED Light Bar
  • Most of these tailgate light strips connect with a standard 4 way trailer connector, so the Curt # C56225 is exactly what you're looking for. This kit comes with the 4 way plug and all of the relays you'll need to install on the vehicle to activate the trailer tow lighting circuits. I've linked an installation video of this harness for you to refer back to during installation.

  • How to Connect +12V Power to 7-Way Trailer Connector
  • The most direct way to get +12V power to your 7-way trailer connector is simply to run a separate 10-gauge wire # 10-1-1 from your battery + terminal, through a 40-amp breaker # PK54540 and on to the 7-way. You can use ring terminals # DW05705-1 at the breaker.

  • Recommended Timbren Suspension Enhancement for a 2022 Nissan Frontier
  • Unfortunately Timbren does not make their Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops # TABSOSR kit without the axle bracket, so if you don't need it you'll just ignore it and install everything else. To figure out if you need a spacer kit #T68MR you're going to need to measure between the frame of your trunk when empty to the rear leaf spring. If you measure anything between 6" to 7 1/2", then you're going to need a spacer.

  • Correct Hubs-Drums and Brakes for Lippert 3,500 lb Spindle
  • The Lubed 4" Drop Spindle with Brake Flange for 3,500-lb Axle # LC12338, uses standard 10" diameter hubs and brakes, for which we have the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA.

  • Parts Need For Installing a Trailer Brake Controller On a 2017 Nissan Frontier SV
  • If your 2017 Nissan Frontier SV Crew 4X4 came with the factory tow package I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR with the Redarc Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED39FR. This controller uses a small control knob which you can place where it is easily accessible. If you do not have a factory 7-way we do have the Curt Harness # C56226. You will then need a Mounting Bracket # PK12711U to secure the 7-way connector on the rear of your Frontier.

  • Troubleshooting No Turn Signal Wiring on Trailer When Connected to New 2020 Nissan Frontier
  • Nissan is notorious for botching up on the wiring front so I definitely get where you're coming from. If the U-Haul trailer has more than one turn signal on the side that wasn't working and it's just one light then it sounds like that light itself either has bad wiring, a bad bulb, or it just needs to be replaced altogether. If there is just one turn signal on that side the above can be true, but your 2020 Nissan Frontier also may need just a new relay for that specific turn signal, which...

  • Parts Needed to Install a Trailer Brake Controller on a 2003 Nissan Frontier with 4-Way Connector
  • You will need to hardwire in a brake controller on a 2003 Nissan Frontier because the truck is not pre-wired for a brake controller. Since you have a 4-Way already, you will just need the 4 and 7 way installation kit, # ETBC7. I have included some links that will explain the ETBC7 installation for you.

  • Additional Relay Needed to Activate Running Lights on a 2009 Nissan Frontier
  • On some Nissan vehicles, including the Frontier, you will need an additional relay, like one of the blue relays in the Curt Relay Kit # C57000, if it is not present in the fuse panel in the cab of the vehicle. You can consult the owner's manual to determine the exact location of all fuses and relays in that panel. If your Frontier did not come with a trailer connector the harness that you would use is # C56225 that comes with 3 relays.

  • What Replacement Mounting Bracket do I Need for My 7-Way Vehicle Plug?
  • Thanks for the photos! For a great replacement bracket, I recommend the EZ Connector Mounting Bracket for 7-Way Trailer Connector - Vehicle End # 319-S7-61. The advantage of this bracket is that it comes with the bolts included where most other brackets do not. If you are looking for a no-drill solution, I suggest using the no-drill mounting bracket # 18136 in addition to the # 319-S7-61. I went ahead and attached a super helpful installation video that show show to use these components.

  • Parts Needed to Add Electric Drum Brakes to a Shorelander Boat Trailer with 2,200 lb Axle
  • To determine the correct parts for adding electric brakes to your trailer with idler hubs you will need to determine if your axle has a brake mounting flange and its bolt pattern. If the axle has a brake mounting flange then it most likely has a 4 bolt pattern. If there is not a brake mounting flange you would need to change out the axle. This would require special ordering an axle with a brake mounting flange installed on it. You could have brake mounting flanges welded to your existing...
